Trying to recall every famous face to have appeared in the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here jungle since its 2002 inception is quite a task.
Whilst many of contestants have seen their careers revitalised in the wake of their stints Down Under - Peter Andre and Jacqueline Jossa spring to mind - others seem to have fallen by the wayside with very few appearances in the public eye since.
As we get set to learn the names of the latest batch of celebrities joining hosts Antony McPartlin and Dec Donnelly on the other side of the world, we thought we'd take a look at some of the past stars you may have forgotten about.

John Fashanu
It feels like a lifetime ago since we saw former footballer and Gladiators presenter John Fashanu star on the ITV show. Indeed it was 2003 that the 61-year old finished runner-up to another retired sportsman in cricketer, Phil Tufnell.
In the same year, Fash the Bash as he was affectionally known on the football field, recorded a six-part series on the same channel similar to America's Man vs. Beast programme. However, after learning of the nature of the show, animal rights groups protested against it and was never broadcast.
In 2020 John launched a campaign to relaunch Gladiators, which ultimately proved successful. Noting that younger generations nowadays are more concerned with health and fitness than he was in his youth, he was confident it would be a success.
He told the Sun at the time: "The health and well-being market is played out all over Instagram, with fit men and women pushing us to believe in ourselves and be kind to our minds and bodies. So there is the next generation of Gladiators right there ready to inspire us — and a new audience ready to absorb it. I think it would be a hit — TV bosses are missing a trick."
Catalina Guirado
Joining John that year was Catalina Guirado - a British-New Zealander actress and model who finished in seventh place. The Norwegian-born star made cameo appearances on This Morning and Bo Selecta following her departure from the jungle, but has rarely been seen on screen since.
She went on to marry i-94 band member Matt Cheadle in 2007, before establishing her own fashion and lifestyle blog, Cat-Talk.
Diane Modahl
A year later former middle distance runner, Diane Modahl, appeared on the show in a series won by Atomic Kitten's Kerry Katona. In a competition full of big names including Katie Price and Peter Andre - who famously went on to marry and have two children - Diane bowed out in second-to-last place.
The cousin of former boxer Chris Eubank - himself an I'm A Celeb alum - Diane shares three children with her Vicente, who is a Norwegian international athletics coach. In 2010 the pair established the Diane Modahl Sports Foundation (DMSF), a registered charity that brings athletics coaching opportunities to young people, particularly those living in disadvantaged areas.
Nell McAndrew
Former glamour model Nell McAndrew appeared in the very first edition of I'm A Celeb - way back in 2002. In a series that featured just eight celebrities as the format tested the reality show water, Nell finished a respectable fourth behind radio DJ winner, Tony Blackburn.
With her late 1990s modelling heyday behind her, Nell was later sacked from her role as the face of Tomb Raider after modelling as the computer game's protagonist on the front cover of Playboy. She went on to marry property developer Paul Hardcastle in 2004, and gave birth to their two children in the years that followed.
The 50-year old has spent years away from the limelight, instead devoting a significant amount of her time to charity work and raising vital funds by running marathons.
